Jebel Ali - Trading License

To obtain a license in the Jebel Ali Free Zone (Jafza), companies must submit a formal incorporation application directly to the authority or through an authorized corporate services provider like Arnifi.

The setup steps include KYC verification, initial and security approvals, trade name reservation, facility lease agreement issuance, digital legal document signing, and final trade license issuance.

KYC is a mandatory compliance requirement to verify shareholder identity documents, primarily requiring a valid passport copy completed through a secure digital verification link.

Once the application is submitted, it undergoes standard background verification and security checks by immigration and regulatory bodies based on the selected business activities and shareholder profiles.
